Description

Overview

This HTS category, 7307, encompasses a broad range of fittings designed for use with tubes and pipes made from iron or steel. These fittings serve the essential function of connecting, terminating, or altering the direction of piping systems. Examples include couplings used to join two pipes, elbows for changing the direction of flow, tees for branching lines, and sleeves for reinforcement or sealing. The classification is based on the material being iron or steel and the fitting's purpose in a pipe or tube system.

When classifying within Section XV, it is crucial to distinguish this category from other base metal articles and iron or steel products. Unlike raw materials (e.g., bars, rods, angles of iron or steel in Chapter 72), these are finished components specifically engineered for piping applications. Furthermore, fittings made from other base metals, such as copper or aluminum, would fall under different HTS chapters.

The subcategories within 7307 allow for further specificity based on manufacturing method and material composition. "Cast fittings" are distinguished by their production process, typically involving molten metal poured into a mold. "Other, of stainless steel" isolates fittings made from stainless steel, a specific alloy known for its corrosion resistance. The residual "Other" category captures all remaining iron and steel pipe fittings not otherwise specified, ensuring comprehensive coverage for this vital component of industrial and infrastructure systems.
